I’m not spoiling much with the clip above. It could be easily separated from the film it’s attached to, though it is also a very appropriate ending. Whit Stillman’s The Last Days of Disco is one of my favorite movies. It contains many of my favorite scenes. The ending credits being among its best because it embraces life’s greatest philosophies and needs—-the rapture of chaos, the joy of dancing, the love of love, the increase of personal strength, forgetting.

To quote Nietzsche: “I would only believe in a god who could dance. And when I saw my devil I found him serious, thorough, profound, and solemn: it was the spirit of gravity—through him all things fall. Not by wrath does one kill but by laughter. Come, let us kill the spirit of gravity!”

Fast Food Blogging?

Fast Food Blogging is a one-man project to capture and share as much relevant material on the "Qualities of Life" as possible. I incorporate the concept of fast food by trying to keep things quick and easy. If a post is longer than one-fourth of a page, it will be marked--- (Warning: Restaurant Post).
